Design should give a damn.

I’m here to hand out lollipops and make great design, and I’m all out of lollipops.

I’m John. I think the most important design tool is a good question. I work with folks who give a damn. I care more about solving problems for people than I do about pixels. I write about how designers can do better work and be better people.

I think and work quickly. I collaborate. I ask for feedback. I’m open to being proven wrong because I’m confident that with the help of my team, we’ll come up with a solution in the end. The results will be beautiful, but more importantly they’ll be right.

If you’re looking for a design partner or team leader who’s also a team player, email me to get a conversation going.
